[QUOTE="Broz, post: 330181, member: 7503"] I agree Roy, a good friend of mine just had a very nice rifle built with a Mcmillan hunter stock, phoenix action with fluted bolt, 27" #5 contour fluted Lilja and chambered in 338 RUM. We stopped with a load just over 2700 MV and I would expect the primer pocket to last 2 or 3 loadings. The rifle weighed in at 11lb 4 oz topped with a 5.5x22x56 NXS. I was amazed when I took it out and busted a 14" wide target at 1162 yards center mass cold bore. I jacked another one in and stuck it right next to the first shot. Nothing wrong with the 338 rum if you don't mind preping new brass. Jeff [/QUOTE]
